The Naowegian economy

I wanna track how the Naowegian economy is doing from the merge. If you can visit this thread often and post how you feel the prices are compared to your old server. Let us know what your old server was too. Then we can see how the economy evolves. Thanks in advance!

So JUST AH is down? What about housing market? Although things maybe chaotic, at the moment how do you feel the prices overall are, the same, higher, or lower? Just the general feel.

I haven't really had the chance to check prices, but someone did say someone was trying to sell a rebirth pot for 15m. So I'd say it's pretty bad right now lol.
No idea if housing channel is busted too. Wouldn't surprise me though.

The combined gold of Tarlach, Mari, & Ruari has made stuff super inflated. Low end is around 25m as of now. Highest avg is around 80m atm. Back on Mari it was between 10m for low end and 50m for high end.

Naogian*?
From Mari. From what I've seen, craft-able consumables such as potions and holy water are down, while other stuff such as gacha is up. I suspect the other stuff will go down over the next few days, for now people are pricing things high to avoid under-selling their goods.
Interestingly, dyes seem to be scattered. Some are higher priced than normal while others are lower. I'm not certain, but I think most expensive dyes are up while cheaper dyes are down.
It's only been 2 days, so it's hard to draw a conclusion from my charts. Especially since the AH was taken down after a few hours of Nao being released from prison and allowed to be a server again. I'm sure that people, myself included, are holding off buying/selling things until the AH is back up, so that will throw things off again when that happens.

As an addicted, and poor, window shopper of Mari: The price rollercoaster is incredibly entertaining to watch but horrifying to think about trying to ride for any later purchases. Hopefully everything will even back out to fair and accurate prices, but even with the proportioned gold/person ratio of now 3 servers I doubt things will settle well.

@Helsa You might as well make a character on Nao to observe the economy because you have as much clue about it as the people currently on the server. Since it's 3 different economy dynamics being forced together, people are making assumptions on pricing and speculating on the average wealth of the meta player (which has changed wildly).

An increase in population increases the money supply. Increase in money supply leads to inflation. That prices are going up is not surprising. The AH and HM being "off-line" is limiting the ability to conduct business. As a result this reduces what is called the velocity of money and, as a result of that, this lowers the marginal propensity to consume which cools off the economy. Cooling off the economy puts a check on inflation. So once AH and HM go online, you may be interested to see what happens to prices then.

Good idea. Don't worry though; I have. Pre-merge I had a Tarlach, a Ruairi, and a Mari character. But I only went to visit non-Alexina friends and to joust for fun. So, I'm not familiar with the histories of those former servers economies. I'm asking folks, based on their "feelings" or what they know, if they are familiar with the old economies in more detail, and which server they are coming from. In real life one of the biggest factors in whether an economy is healthy or not is a result of whether enough people feel it is healthy or not.
